While I did enjoy receiving Popular Science every month, I did not see much value in keeping a subscription because I can find most of the information presented online. Pop-Sci does not contribute much more to the table. However, it is not an expensive magazine, so I guess you get what you pay for.

Recently I have noticed a severe leftist slant to articles in Popular Science. Specifically, the July 2012 article, "The Battle," and "Climate Change is already Happening" failed to give even a cursory nod to those who do not believe global warming, if it IS happening (and there are plenty of scientists who do not) is caused by man. Many people, scientists included, believe global warming is a natural process that the earth and other planets have gone thru for millions of years. I resent that the article presented global warming as FACT, when scientists themselves do not agree.

I bought this magazine as a gift for my boyfriend who is majoring in electronics engineering. He loves it! He enjoys reading every article and every issue. I'm definitely going to renew his subscription.

Popular Science Magazine Subcription Video Review

Video Transcript

Hi, I’m Jim. I’m a senior in high school and I love sports and science. I’m hoping to major in engineering next year in when I head off to college.

Popular Science is one of my favorite magazines because it is a great science and technology magazine. I always look forward to reading it. Popular Science covers a variety of sciences including: chemistry, astronomy, physics, biology, medicine and environmental science.

You can also expect to find regular articles on technology like space, robots and engineering and features on concept cars, gadgets like computers, smartphones and TVs. There are a lot of articles on how things work and new technologies that I find really interesting.

The well-written articles always give a good overview and decent scientific understanding of the topic, but aren’t so complex that I feel like I have to Google terms.

There’s also fun articles like the recent “hottest pepper ever” and spy-like sunglasses. I also really like reading about what’s new in the world of science and technology—from new discoveries to the latest hybrid car designs. Innovation in science and technology is thoroughly covered.

I also like the section called Projects, which highlights do-it-yourself instructions on how to make cool stuff like a motorized easy chair or something more practical like a nitrous-injected dining table. Popular Science really encourages its readers to be innovation—each year it holds a contest for inventors called the Invention Awards and features the winners in the magazine.

If you’re looking for a great gift for any guy or anyone interested in science and technology, I highly recommend a gift subscription to Popular Science magazine from Magazines.com.
